What coloured day are you having? (PART 1)

Colour is such an important part of the way we bring vibrancy to our lives. I remember back to black and white television (which shows you how old I am) and the day when I first saw colour. Everything seemed so much more real and vibrant.

In developing our whole system called The Financial Fence® I have learnt the value of colour and as a result found that many people learn more by the association of colour than numbers and words.

So in this little series of blog posts I’m going to look at the three colours that make up the activity on the fence and associate them to the kind of day you might be having.

So there are three different types of day you may be having as a business owner:

  1. A SKY BLUE day – this is the kind of day when you’re interacting with your customers.
  2. An ORANGE day when you’re working on administration , process and efficiency.
  3. A GREEN day when you’re working ON your business rather than IN your business.

Many times you may be having a day when all the colours are merged together and you feel in a bit of a mess. That is probably a black day for you.

If you’re having one of those days then the best thing to do is take a deep breath. Count to ten. Put two of the three colours away for the day and focus on only one of them.

You’ll find this will really help you and , you know, there’s always another day to bring out the other colours and get the value from them.
